Mission Trail Cider Co.- we believe the best cider is made from the best fruit. Growing up in the fine wine industry, Victor and Monte understand the importance in using the finest fruit to make the finest juice, which in turn makes the finest finished product. They didn't source their fruit based on what was readily or cheaply available. The harder way will always make the better product, and we think you will agree when you try our cider. Our apples are sourced from old growth, family owned orchards that have been cared for by generations of family farmers. One of our growers, Lee, has been farming apples, cherries, and pears like his father before him. He does business the old-fashioned way, with a handshake in the orchard. Monte promised to make cider that would put the essence of the fruit first: no water, no added concentrate, and no flavoring. Our apples are the same quality you would find at your grocery store or farmers market, they are that good. We also use some of the most unique varietals of apples found in any cider in the United States. Mission-Trail uses 29 heirloom varietals in our cider; each one is listed on our label if you look hard enough!

Ironbark Cider- At Ironbark our life's purpose is to produce delightfully delicious cider for people who care about what they put into their bodies and yet still want to enjoy a drink or two. Ironbark Cider is dry, bright, bubbly and crisp. We don't use sulfites, preservatives, or sugars and we don't filter. Our cider is also pre-biotic because... well, we all know that life is a little less traumatic with a happy gut.

THE CIDER: WILDCIDE- ​Is A Dry Cider With A Light, Golden Color; A Tribute To The Aurum Brand Name, Which Is The Latin Word For “Gold.” WILDCIDE’s Bright Apple Aroma Is Produced By The Fresh Pressed Juice Of Four Kinds Of Apples.

Ace Cider from California Cider Company- We have been making ACE ciders for 21 years in the beautiful Sebastopol area of Sonoma County in California; right along side some of the world’s most renowned wine makers. Thanks to Ace Cider – America’s Best – the cider business in America is growing rapidly. There really is a refreshing alternative to beer and wine and it’s ACE! Unfortunately, some ciders never see an apple and are poor representations of the category. They’ve really given hard cider a bad name. Many ciders are far too perfumy (almost Jolly Rancher-tasting) and are quite a put-off to those seeking a crisp alcoholic refreshment. Some ciders are very dry and barnyard tasting, especially some of the imports. We challenge you to take a taste test of your own if you don’t believe ACE ciders are truly America’s Best!

Surf City Cider, Hallcrest Vineyards and Scrumpy's Hard Cider- First and foremost, we are winemakers with a passion for also making cider. All of the Surf City Cider products are crafted at the historic Hallcrest Vineyards Winery in the Santa Cruz Mountains. Continuous wine production has occurred on this property since 1945. Our ciders have the unique privilege to come of age side by side with award winning Pinot Noir and Organic Wines. With over 35 years of innovative winemaking experience and the prestige of being the first organically certified winery in the country allows, our ciders are produced under these philosophies. We choose to source only organically grown apples from the Santa Cruz Mountains and the Pacific Northwest. Much like vintages in wine, we acknowledge that each blend of apples will be slightly different depending on the year, even the time of year.

Hemly Pear Cider- Our cider is made from 100% fresh pressed fruit straight from our orchards. Unlike a lot of pear ciders on the market today, our pear cider is made from fresh pears, never artificially flavored. We do not use concentrate and control the entire process from the roots to the glass. After six generations of growing pears if there is one thing you can be sure of; we know pears!

California the golden state with its beaches, movie stars, Disneyland and extensive agricultural areas throughout the state and especially in the San Joaquin Valley also has over 100 apple orchards and numbers of other fruit and nut orchards and growing areas. Though it has been called "The food basket of the World", the San Joaquin Valley has not been nationally recognized for the diversity of its produce. Oranges, peaches, garlic, tangerines, tomatoes, kiwis, hay, alfalfa and numerous other crops have been harvested with great success. With this agricultural abundance available, California also now has 79 large and small cider producers that create quality ciders from apples, pears and a number of other delicious fruits mostly grown in the state.

Snow-Line Orchard and Winery- sits at 5,000 feet in the mountains above Yucaipa where we grow 36 varieties of apples and have 3 flavors of apple cider. Established in 1898, it has long been a major apple producer in Oak Glen. Mert and Shirley Hudson, owners of Snow Line, have been operating the farm over 36 years. “I’ve always wanted to do this and we finally did it,” said Mert. “It’s all made here. And it’s a family business.” The owner’s two sons and their wives, Scott and Linda Hudson and Michael and Sonja Hudson all have a role at Snow Line.

THE CIDER:

2013 ¿Querry?- We milled the quince and suspended the fruit in muslin bags, as if it were a tisane of quince. This cider was fermented at an extremely cold temperature. Crisp in acidity and just off-dry with an unmistakable quinciness, Querry is the perfect accompaniment to, well, essentially everything. It is composed of virtually everything, but most significantly: 62% pear, 36% apple, 2% quince, malic acid, and sulfur dioxide.

THE CIDER:

SMOKED AND OAKED NEWTOWN PIPPIN- Our Newtown Pippin starts it's year as an apple picked then gently smoked with apple wood, fermented, and aged on french oak. By the following year, the taste is smooth and well rounded. The smoke and oak balance each other as well as add complexity to the tannins found in the Newtown Pippin. This is a big cider with notes of sweet tobacco and vanilla.

THE CIDERS:

Specific Gravity 2013 Gravenstein- Sip our 2013 Gravenstein and immerse your senses in cool, refreshing aromas of crisp apple accentuated with hints of nutmeg and cardamom.

Now, celebrate Nana’s wild side with this limited edition cider that captures the distinctive flavors of 2013 early harvest. It offers delightful aromas of slightly sweet apple, hints of pie, full body and a lingering finish.

THE CIDERS:

Santa Cruz Scrumpy Organic Hard Cider- Our flagship cider product, the Santa Cruz Scrumpy Hard Apple Cider is blended using a winemaker’s approach by focusing on aromatics, balance, and food pairing. Sourcing all organic ingredients, the apple cider leads off with fresh Golden Delicious apple aroma, with undertones of tropical fruits like pineapple and kiwi. Crisp apple greets you on the palate, getting sweeter as the flavor progresses before succumbing to soft apple acidity in the finish. The beverage is intentionally light in carbonation to balance the freshness without compromising the body and texture.

Santa Cruz Scrumpy Pomegranate- is the most complex of our current line of hard Apple ciders. Created by adding pomegranate concentrate to our base cider, the nose fills out with pomegranate and apple candy, while red licorice undertones lend a seductive edge. The palate is crisp, much like the bite of a pomegranate, with a solid backbone of acid. The cider picks up on the finish, with a cherry note melding into a dominant granny smith finish. The beverage is intentionally light in carbonation to balance the freshness without compromising the body and texture.

Santa Cruz Scrumpy Barrel Aged Dry- is putting a complex twist on this typically sweet beverage. Prior to the harvest and pressing of the 2013 Santa Cruz Scrumpy Apples, three new barrels were selected to not only age the cider in, but also to serve as fermentation vessels. After the fermentation began in tank on a larger batch that would become Santa Cruz Scrumpy Apple Cider, the three new oak barrels were filled and placed into the cellar. The oak used was a combination of French and American oak barrels.

Santa Cruz Scrumpy Chider- Cherry- Made by blending Cherry concentrate to our base cider blend, the Chider is the sweetest of our ciders. The soda like aspect of the cherry brings out the Fuji and Red Delicious on the nose, with an overall hard candy appeal. The palate is dominated by sweet dark cherry with undertones of apple and watermelon. The finish is salivating and sweet, much as is the entire approach.

Bonny Doon Vineyards- Founded in 1983 by Randall Grahm, Bonny Doon Vineyard made its mark on the vinous world with its pioneering efforts with Rhône varieties. Grahm was one of California's original Rhône Rangers. Since adopting Biodynamic® farming practices in 2004, Bonny Doon Vineyard wines evince a deeper sense of place, complexity, and varietal expression and a noticeable sense of organization. We aim to make the most soulful wines we can possibly muster—wines of vibrant vitality.

Scar of the Sea- wines is a shared vision between long-time friends and colleagues, Mikey Giugni and Michael Brughelli. The mission for Scar of the Sea wines is to produce wine and cider that is unique to a place while being balanced, complex, and most importantly is fun and delicious to drink. With so much emphasis in today’s wine culture on singular elements of winemaking such as alcohol, whole cluster fermentation, or oak regiment; Scar of the Sea strives to shift the pendulum to focus on what is in the glass. The most important part of our wines and cider is where they are grown. Location, climate, and soils matter.

THE CIDER:

Black Dot Hard Apple Cider- The moment apple juice is first pressed it wants to turn to hard cider. Natural yeasts in the air and on the fruit blend with the sugar and begin the fermentation process. It's just natural! So when our fresh pressed cider started to develop alcohol, our neighbor and close friend, Ken would mark the caps on the cider jugs with a "Black Dot" to signify that fermentation had begun. These jugs would be set aside to be enjoyed later on by those looking for something little more special.

THE CIDERS:

Naturally fermented using a premium blend of fresh pressed apple juice, not from concentrate, and fermented with Belgian Trappist beer yeasts, The Saint boasts a sweet floral bouquet that develops a yeasty, herbal complexity.

Common Cider Co. - We don’t brew ciders, we craft moments. If it has anything to do with bringing people together, sparking conversation, bolstering friendships, and creating memories, it has everything to do with our approach to cider. Just ask Fran. As founder of Common Cider, Fran Toves was inspired into the cider realm by a simple desire: to utilize her foodies’ passion for flavor experimentation and her love of shared times to create something rare and delicious. Her dream was a portfolio of ciders painstakingly designed to pair beautifully with food while moving people to find common ground and celebrate the simple act of being human. In 2012, Fran shared her dream with the world at homebrew competition in Reno, NV. And the response, three ciders placing in the top 10, was all the validation she needed to go all in. Thus Common Cider was born. Only the juiciest, fresh-pressed, locally sourced apples. Only the choicest, natural fruit extracts and botanicals – local and organic wherever possible. Flavor profiles that lean more towards wine than beer. Light, crisp, a sweetness hinted but never overstated. These are ciders that taste like poems, enjoy them in the spirit of togetherness.

​THE CIDERS:

THE CIDERS:

2014 Lost Orchard Dry Cider- Made largely from rare Old World tannic cider apples gleaned from a feral orchard in west Sonoma County. Tastes like a walk in wild meadow. Naturally sparkling.

Graviva! Semidry Cider- Pronounced “Gra-VEE-va” as in “Viva la Grav(enstein)!” "50% Gravensteins, 50% heirloom and tannic apples. Our most versatile and crowd-pleasing cider, an interplay of fruit and funk, with a hint of sweetness.

2015 Smoked- ​An unorthodox blend that marries the natural complements of apples and wood smoking. Dry, tannic, with a mellow smoky finish. Like drinking a brut champagne near a bonfire.

At Redwood Coast Cider, we're working to combine sustainable production and unique styles of cider for the SF Bay Area. In addition to more widely accepted sparkling ciders we plan to produce traditional Basque-style ciders. This means it's "still" with a strong aroma of apple and balanced flavor notes of sour and sweet. This method of brewing is hard to find in the Bay Area and we want to bring this unique style of cider home for others to enjoy. But we aren't stopping there, we also have plans for other fruits and herbal flavored varieties as well.

Lassen Traditional Cider- Bringing apples back to the North State! All the apples we use come from within 160 miles of Chico, from the Cascade and Sierra Nevada foothill regions along with the coast mountains. We strive to seek out the best apples for cider. Just as you wouldn't want to use table grapes to make wine, you don't want to use dessert apples to make cider. Since European "true" cider varieties are extremely hard to come by, our focus is on the American Heirloom varieties that have a rich history and have traditionally been used for cider, but are considered multi-purpose in that they can usually also be eaten fresh or used for cooking.

Coturri Winery- For 25 years, Coturri has been a name to trust for pure wines - big, fullbodied, superrich, complex fruit filled wines that capture the taste of the vineyard (“terroir”).

Coturri wines are truly handcrafted - bottled by hand, hand corked, and labeled by hand.

THE CIDER:

Small batch, limited addition, handpicked, hand crafted in French Oak barrels, hand bottled by family and winemaking team at Dutton Estate Winery.

THE CIDERS:​

The Classic Cider- A blend of west coast apples including Golden Delicious, Fuji, Granny Smith, Gala, Gravenstein, Macintosh, Mutsu, Red Delicious, and Pink Lady. Fermented and aged in a combination of French oak barrels, Acacia barrels and stainless steel. The cider was fermented with a combination of beer and wine yeast; English cider yeast, Edinburgh Ale yeast, Champagne yeast, Belgian Saison yeast, white wine yeast, and native cellar yeast. It was aged for 3 months, and then dry hopped with Nelson Sauv, and Cascade to add to the aromatic complexity.

Templetucky- A blend of apples sourced from Mike Barsotti's orchard in Placerville, CA. Co-fermented by native yeast with Blood Oranges from Cambria, and aged in Old Bourbon Casks for 4 months. Dry hopped in barrel with Mandarin hops. Unfiltered & bottle conditioned.

Drew Winery, Our connection to the land does not end with wine. We are also apple farmers. Our 15 acre orchard was planted in the early 1960's. Named after the original Blossom School that was first located adjacent to this orchard where the children of the orginal homesteader families on this ridge attended kindergarten thru third grade. There are 6 varieties of apples planted here that include Gravensteins, Golden Delicious, Rhode Island Greenings, Jonathans, Rome Beauties and Red Delicious. So what does the next chapter hold for this beautiful heritage orchard? We love our orchard and want to do right by it; we feel we have become orchard preservationists by default. Apples are not a really a viable business unless you make something with them. With that experimental vision, we are currently conjuring up a vintage sparkling cider. Check back for updates!

Brooks Dry Cider- Born in California but raised in England, Brooks Dry is a west coast interpretation of the drier ciders popular overseas. This isn’t a sweet alcopop you’ll often find in the US but a well-crafted, perfectly balanced cider. We only use 100% apple juice (no juice concentrates or essences here) fermented in Napa with champagne yeast. It’s crisp and light with a mighty good bite.

The story of Tag + Jug Cider Co. goes back over one hundred years ago to my paternal grandparents, William “Jug” and Thelma “Tag” Bryan, whom I barely knew. My grandfather Jug died well before I was born and grandma Tag passed away when I was only 11 years old. Born and raised in Texas in the early 20th century, as young adults, they packed up everything they owned and moved to California, seeking a new life for themselves and for their family to come. Tag + Jug Cider Co. is my homage to them. In 2013 I found a family owned orchard in the Sierra Foothills and started making cider from a proprietary blend of their sustainably grown apples. Tag + Jug Cider Co. was born.

The unique See Canyon climate produces apples with exceptional balance and clarity.

The primary hopping (a blend of Amarillo, Cascade, Nelson, and Simcoe hops) adds a rich earthy texture, followed by a secondary hopping of 100% Citra hops. Tart, fragrant, naturally sparkling, and explosive with citrus notes.

Stone Fence- Quince. Cider. Bourbon. Three of the most sought after treats in pre-prohibition America. With this farmhouse cider we pay homage to the Stone Fence, the original American cocktail.

We strive to make a product that isn't overly sweet but not like a brute that leaves you yearning for sugar water after every sip.

At South City Ciderworks we recognize the importance of community involvement and philanthropy which is why we are devoted to giving back.

Guthrie Ciderworks Dry Cider

Tilted Shed Ciderworks- is a small, Sonoma County-based cidery founded in 2011 by the husband-wife team of Scott Heath and Ellen Cavalli. Famous for its wines, Sonoma County also has a rich apple heritage, and our mission is to elevate the apple to greatness through cider. Our heirloom apples are locally grown in old, organic, dry-farmed orchards. At our Sebastopol farm, we grow dozens of rare, traditional tannic cider apple varieties, which, like winegrapes, provide the structure and depth that common table fruit cannot. For us, apples hold secrets. They persevere through drought and pestilence, and every year they show us new ways to experience them. We are on a quest to explore their mysteries by making beautiful, nuanced ciders that reflect our principles, place, and point of view. Wassail!

THE CIDERS:

Wooden Tooth Special- This is our flagship apple cider that is available year round. The juice is fresh pressed in Apple Hill, Ca. We ferment and package it at our west side Santa Cruz production facility.

Hopped Apple Cider- As most things that happen at sc cider co this was an experimental cider that left all of us with our heads spinning.

This is our Wooden tooth apple cider that is dry hopped with cascade hops

THE CIDER:

Our Farmhouse Cider- contains no additives of any kind. We rely on the natural yeasts for fermentation and the natural sugars for a little spritz in the bottle.

Sierra Cider- was molded out of the love and desire to live in the Sierra Foothills, to grow apple trees, and spend free time enjoying the many wonders of the Yosemite area. The owners, Dave and Beth Lancaster, share this as they develop their cider business. The sale of Beth’s home along with their combined savings gave them the opportunity to buy the Mariposa property. The land that Dave had spent years working on and the lure of the most beautiful outdoor recreation area became a reality for them. Dave and Beth spent several years trying to maintain the old orchard with all its rugged beauty. Unfortunately the trees had moved beyond their prime and had become a source for pests and disease. It was a losing battle. Then one beautiful day after biking around a lake, they stopped at their favorite pub and decided to try a local cider. This was not your sweet “wine-cooler” type; this one had complexity and character. The cider idea was born. Today when you drive onto the property and along the orchard gravel road, you will be passing by beehives and 20 different varieties of apple trees and possibly someone picking one of the early varieties. The orchard includes cider type apples including traditional English bittersweets, early American russets and lots of crabapples.

Granny Smith apple cider is fermented until dry, hopped, and then bottled with the addition of Saison yeast and aged for at least four additional months undergoing secondary fermentation. The resulting cider is bone dry, tart, and refreshingly crisp with a hint of hops.

Blackbeard- Named after the famous pirate who was born in Neil and Jackie’s home town of Bristol, England, Blackbeard is a truly unique creation with a cult following. Made with Arkansas Black apples, this cider spends at least eight months in bourbon casks before it is bottled with a combination of 80% champagne and 20% brettanomyces yeasts and undergoes secondary fermentation. Strong in flavor, smooth going down and with just enough sweetness from the apples, Blackbeard is one of a kind.

Golden State Cider- California is our home, our inspiration and our playground -- so we set out to create a cider that goes great with outside and doesn't compromise on flavor or integrity. We crafted an ingredient list you can pronounce and count on one hand, then packaged it in cans so you can take the Golden State with you on all of your adventures. We start by pressing 100% fresh West Coast apples, and well, that's about it. NO added water. NO added sugar. NO concentrates. NO bad juju. It's everything you want and nothing you don't.

Julian Hard Cider- Since the first American settlers arrived to our country over 300 years ago until prohibition in the 1920′s, hard cider was the original drinking man’s beverage on the farm, in the factories and through our coastal shipyards. Located in the frontier gold mining town of Julian, California, our growing company continues the American tradition of handcrafted, quality hard cider production using the finest ingredients, painstaking attention to detail and good old fashioned hard work. The recipe originates from 1670 colonial America and is comparable to the finest British ciders. Unlike many “impostor” hard ciders on the market, it is easy to have more than one pint of Julian Hard Cider as we do not use concentrated apple Juice or additives which leave the drinker with a lingering sugary film and after-taste. One taste of our premium hard cider and you will experience why Julian Hard Cider is “American to the Core”.

THE CIDERS:

William Tell Pinot Grigio Hard Apple Cider- Our signature cider is a unique blend of freshly fermented Hard Apple Cider and premium California Pinot Grigio. We start with fresh juice from five types of apples and ferment it in three lots, each with different yeast to add flavor complexity. Then comes the creative touch: we add 15% of our Pinot Grigio and then Frost Ferment the blend to concentrate the fresh apple and wine character and enhance the flavors. If Frost Fermentation doesn’t sound familiar, it’s because we invented this technique to create our Pinot Grigio cider.

Santa Cruz Cider Company- Our family has a great passion for using the local harvest, hand made products and anything with alcohol in it. So, hard apple cider seemed to be a perfect fit. We got our start with a pick up truck full of “found” apples and a borrowed press. We have now moved on to our own equipment and an unlimited supply of apples, thanks to Dave and Gretta for the apples and all of the 2013 harvest crew. We couldn't have done it without you!

Turquoise Barn Cider- A family-run cidery in Ramona, California making the finest hand-crafted hard cider. Come by and see us! Just look for the turquoise barn. Family patriarch Pete acquired a neglected chicken ranch with the intent to quickly fix up the property and sell. In retrospect, that probably would have been the easy thing to do. But his family would not let this wonderful place go that easily - they loved the atmosphere, the land, and a large oddly-painted barn on the property. There was an old coat of primer on portions of the largest barn that was a lovely shade of turquoise. After some thought and prayer, some paperwork, and a meeting on a Tuesday evening around the kitchen table, Turquoise Barn Cider was born.

THE CIDERS:

Julian CiderWorks- Using exclusively local fruit, sourced from various orchards in the Julian area, we produce interesting ciders that you won’t find at other cideries. We have a different focus than other cider makers, that being to help build the local apple and pear orchards grow to their full potential, and to educate cider enthusiasts on what different apple and pear varieties bring to the table on their own. Most cider makers carefully blend the fruit they have at their disposal to try to create as perfect a cider as they can. Indeed, many cideries simply purchase juice, or juice concentrate, and try to differentiate their ciders by what they add to disguise the fact that cider made from readily-available culinary fruit is often somewhat bland and unexciting. Often these ciders are very sweet and fruity, resembling soda in their character. We will do a limited amount of blending and flavoring, but most of our focus will be to bring ciders made from local single varietals to the discriminating cider drinker. This concept of changing the ciders as little as possible, and letting the fruit speak for itself, will be one of the things setting us apart from other cideries.

Wrangletown Cider Company- is a small, craft producer of Hard Cider in Humboldt County, California. My love for producing Cider stems from my love for Winemaking. I had my first Cider from England about 20 years ago and the memory of that beverage has always stuck with me. Cider Making requires the same skills as Winemaking: great fruit, careful management of fermentation and seeing the product through to the bottle. Choosing quality fruit is essential as in the winemaking process. Creating this business takes into account the rich Apple farming history in Humboldt County, my childhood home. I couldn't think of a better place than Humboldt to start this business. I am committed to acquiring apples from Humboldt County orchards as much as possible. I currently am receiving apples from Feisty Dog Orchard in Holmes, Fieldbrook Nursery in Fieldbrook, an amazing private orchard in Rio Dell and Mitchell Grove in Eureka. I will be bottling my ciders as Orchard Specific ciders. I want the focus to be on the unique flavors of each location and I want to honor the farmers who work so very hard to produce such amazing fruit.

Phantom Ales- We love fermenting things. Malted Barley, Grapes, Apples, Honey, Peaches, Pears,... I'm not sure where this will end. We are a nano Brewery, Cidery, Winery, and soon to be Meadery.

Our apples are the heritage varieties such as Kingston Black, Kerrys Irish Pippen, Nehou, Stayman Winesap, Roxbury Russet and several other russet-type apples, as well as various crab apples which add tannins and body to the lighter apple juice. We have a few sweet apples for early picking, but the majority of the apples are too bitter and sharp to enjoy as dessert fruit. Our orchard is certified by Marin Organic and our cider is made using all natural yeast. We harvest the apples over a long period of time in the fall, picking each variety as it becomes ripe and storing for a few weeks so that the natural sugars increase.

Troy Cider- Today, American apple growers are facing nearly as tough a time as Prohibition, and new cider apple plantings are minuscule. The Troy Cider label is our exhaustive effort to sustain the quintessential beauty of apples in America. Cider apples are not grown in industrial orchards. They are the gnarled, twisted, wonderful trees in tall grass, overgrown by mistletoe. They are green, yellow, brown, red, black, pink, orange; shriveled, knotted skin; tannic, sour, tremendously fragrant and sweet. Some have been on the ground for weeks, desiccating into fantastic concentration, others are picked right off the tree for a crisp brightness. Our ciders are a blend of the essence of California, nurtured from the roots of lonely wild trees found in abandoned orchards and swampy hillsides. We hope our ciders will preserve the magic in these trees for a long, long time.

Reef Points- We make cider, the hard kind. It embodies a craft born from the relentless wind and wave. From our galley to your belly, may you drink and return to the sea.

The Apple Farm- It was the cold wet winter of 1984 when we first began to tame the wild and neglected property that we call simply “The Apple Farm.” There were apple trees, but it wasn't much of a farm. Over a quarter century, we have come a long way. To our delight we now have three generations working together in ever greater harmony with the land. Our years of working the farm led us from conventional practices, through transition, and on to many years of being certified organic. We want to continue to evolve and have chosen biodynamic farming as a framework in which we can further develop our relationship with our farm. It is an endlessly fascinating endeavor and we are all energized by the new and old ideas that we unearth.

Bristols Cider- is a part of the Lone Madrone winery, owned and operated by brother and sister Neil and Jackie and Neil's wife Marci. Jackie and Neil grew up in the West Country of England which is very much cider country. We are not talking murky apple juice here but the fermented version. When Neil moved to California he was disappointed to find none of the traditional beverage of his home, of which he had been known to partake on occasion. So in 1994 Neil began making small batches of cider from local apples under the Bristols name. Since that time it has evolved into a small line up of ciders. These ciders are all from select varieties of local apples, primarily from See Canyon and Paso Robles, although we have played with fruit from Oregon. All ciders are 100% apple juice and fermented on the native yeasts of the fruit. We ferment different ciders in different casks, some in retired Bourbon casks some in retired white wine barrels but most in stainless steel.

THE CIDERS:

The Hatchet Apple- Occasionally it’s true that “less is more.” Take the organic apples in The Hatchet: the smaller the fruit, the bigger the flavor. But picking the smallest, most intensely-flavored apples is the easy part. It’s what happens next that matters, the blending and balancing, pairing sweet and tart varietals to yield a refreshing cider with noticeable complexity and a crisp, clean finish. It’s the hard cider equivalent of alchemy: turning little organic apples into great big flavor.

The Pitchfork Pear- Pears weren’t much on our radar when we first built the cidery, because we were all about apples. The challenge was to capture the creaminess of pears while steering clear of its cloying sweetness. The solution is The Pitchfork. It’s still crisp, refreshing hard apple cider, but with a distinctly pear accent and a creamy mouth feel that maintains cider integrity while adding a whole new dimension. Hard to describe, harder still to resist.

The Anvil Bourbon- Apples and bourbon. Crispness and smoke. Sometimes we even surprise ourselves. Like when we took hard cider made from perfect Pacific Northwest organic apples and spiked it with a healthy measure of our proprietary barrel-proof bourbon flavor (alcohol-free to keep it legal). Someone called it “beguiling,” but there’s nothing nuanced about this cider—it’s intense, alive and totally memorable.

The Washboard Sarsaparilla Vanilla- is a decidedly adult beverage for grownups who can appreciate the sophisticated flavor of imported Indian sarsaparilla blended with the crisp, tart juice of organic Pacific Northwest apples, and finished with a touch of vanilla. It might make you a bit nostalgic for your favorite childhood quaff, but not for long. After your first couple of sips of The Washboard’s mild earthy flavor, creamy texture, and notes of caramel and vanilla, you’ll be glad you’re all grown up.

Limited Run- Now and then, an idea for a new cider inspires us to go in a different direction. Why not blend delicate anise with some tart organic hard cider? Or create a cider fiesta in a can by combining apples, hot peppers and lime? The whole point of our limited-run line up is to go where our inspiration takes us. But don’t wait till long: these limited-run ciders are around only while they last, then disappear forever. Maybe.

Reserve- Every so often, we craft a hard cider of such inspired creativity that we even impress ourselves. So we created a whole new category in our product line-up called “Reserve”. Each Reserve bottle is individually wrapped, numbered, and signed by our cidermaster, who applies his 30 years of winemaking expertise to producing these extraordinarily distinctive ciders.

Guthrie CiderWorks- is a San Diego-based craft cider start-up. Our ciders are fermented using real fruit juice from a blend of premium west coast apples. Our process starts with the juice but it does not stop there. Working with a variety of yeast strains, we have been developing and perfecting our recipes. After an incalculable number of trial batches, we have selected the yeast combinations that produce a complex cider with enhanced aroma and improved structure. Never too sweet, each of our ciders retains the character of the fruit, but with a crisp, layered and refreshing character.

THE CIDERS:

Meraki Cider- Meraki is doing something with passion, creativity, and a whole lot of love. It’s doing something because it brings you joy—and because you can’t imagine doing anything else. That’s what goes into every bottle, and that’s why we’re so proud to share it with you. From wiping the sticky apple juice from our hands after marathon slicing and dicing sessions to feeling the burn in our thighs after countless “bottling squats,” it’s all hands-on, all day. And we wouldn’t have it any other way.

101 Cider House- We are Angeleno's, cider evangelists, lovers of craft beverages. In the fall of 2013. we found ourselves in the midst of a cider renaissance that was exploding across the US and beyond. Here we are in California, one of the greatest beverage cultures that exists anywhere in the world. First it was wine, then craft beer, and now California cider is becoming a hot commodity. For what is typically known to be a distinctly regional beverage, it makes sense that cider houses are popping up in many great US cities. Think Portland, Seattle, San Francisco, Denver, Chicago, New York. We wondered why Los Angeles, which is central to Southern California's apple growing communities, did not have a local cider brand to call it's own. And so, with a passion and a purpose in mind, we bring you 101 Cider House.

Krazy Farm Cider- When we make Cider we aim for a one of a kind craft drink. Using quality ingredients sourced from leading suppliers on the west coast. Drink responsibly.

Hemly Cider- Grown in the delta, our ciders are made exclusively from our pears and apples. From orchard to the bottle we are working to bring you the best cider we can. Our plan is to put all our attention and energy into perfecting one cider, done right. We started with estate grown, handpicked Bartlett pears. To add balance, we have blended in less than 40% estate grown Gala apples. We choose the Gala because of its subtle characteristics that will not overwhelm the pear, which is the real star of our cider! Crushed at the peak of ripeness, fermented, then aged in oak, gently sweetened with fresh juice and lightly carbonated, we can't wait to share with you our California Gold!

Sutton Cellars- An urban winery and tasting room. Small lots of handcrafted wines since nineteen hundred and ninety six - that's fifteen years if you're counting!!! Also, small-batch farmhouse hard cider since 2010. The idea at Sutton Cellars has always been to allow the most character in what we make with the least amount of additions, processing, or manipulation. In the current zeitgeist of “natural” wines this may sound like a well worn trope. The last time we filtered a wine was in the late 90s, the last purchased yeast used was for a stuck ferment in 2004. Organic, dry farmed fruit is used, always hand harvested and sorted, and fermentations usually last three weeks or more. In the last decade the use of new oak has diminished to zero. We bottle unfined and unfiltered and the bottles are gravity filled and hand corked or capped. Very little, if any, sulfur is added. From aperitif, to cider, to dry and dessert wines there is a consistency that shows these practices.

Dutton Estate Winery- is in the Green Valley AVA in the Russian River Valley located near the small charming town of Sebastopol. Once a dominant apple-growing region, Sebastopol is now a destination hide-away and home to the winery’s founders, Joe and Tracy Dutton. Joe and Tracy’s agricultural heritage is deeply rooted in Sebastopol, as Tracy’s great-grandparents began farming apples in the 1920’s and today continues growing apples and grapes at the family’s recognized farm and food production facility in Forestville at Kozlowski Farms. Joe is co-owner of Dutton Ranch, which was founded in 1964 by his parents. Today, Dutton Ranch farms 1300 acres of grapes and 250 acres of apples, all within the Green Valley-Russian River Valley and Sonoma Coast appellations.

THE CIDERS:

Troy Cider MMXIV- This pome fruit medley is comprised of wildly organic heirloom apples and pears from Sonoma County, married with beautifully fragrant quince picked from the original plantings of legendary horticulturist Luther Burbank. Cold fermented to dry with only native yeasts and aged in neutral oak barrels for 8 months on the lees. The result is a shockingly mellow, yet undeniably complex cider that is reminiscent of tropical pineapple, guava, and vanilla.

Troy Hard Apple- A delightfully archaic cider with 100% organic heirloom apples harvested from the abandoned orchards of Sonoma County. While certain cultivars such as Gravenstein are recognizable, others remain unidentified. The raw juice was fermented dry after 8 months in Pinot Noir barrels, with only the ambient yeasts in the cellar. The unfiltered result is a cloudy, lightly sparkling, and extremely raw beverage that communicates the very soul of the apple.

​

THE CIDERS:

Hella Hopped Cider- We do not filter, add sulfites or pasteurize, providing true cider flavors and a beautiful pour.

Sierra Cider Dry Summer Blend- Semi-Dry, If you like a little more bubbly, this one is for you. A bit more carbonation and low in sweetness brings out the acid making a refreshingly dry apple cider with no lingering sweet aftertaste.

Sierra Cider Early Harvest- Semi-Sweet, Just a hint of sweetness, but bold in flavor with a surprising note of honey and apple blossom aroma. The sweetness counters the dryness and the carbonation adds to mouth feel. A favorite of many.

Two Broads Ciderworks- We are a start-up craft cidery in San Luis Obispo, making delicous real cider from local and heirloom apples. Maggie, a biologist and gardener, and Morgan, a home brewer and engineer, met as students while sailing the high seas aboard the Training Ship Golden Bear. As they explored San Luis Obispo county, they happened upon See Canyon, and in its beautiful orchards discovered they loved heirloom apples; suddenly they understood the world of apples was bigger than Granny Smith and Washington. They made their first hard cider with the juice pressed from See Canyon apples. These first batches taught the Broads the potential for cider; it didn’t have to be artificially sweet corporate cider, but could be really good, really different, and really exciting. They have since sampled the excellent ciders from France, England, and Spain. They fell in love again. Fast forward to the present. Morgan and Maggie have committed their lives to each other and to making great cider for their community. Their goal: to source local fruit to make delicious ciders in San Luis Obispo, to promote the appreciation of good cider, and to nurture the growth of heirloom cider apple production locally.

THE CIDER:

PET-Nat Cider- We have been producing still cider since 2008. While I enjoy our ciders but not the bit of sourness that is so intrinsic in Basque style cider production. We use the natural yeast of the apples, ferment and age in somewhat neutral 60 gallon French oak barrels.

Calico Cidery at Calico Ranch- was started as part of an original homestead and includes a portion of the historic Saunders Ranch. The original planting was a pear orchard until this was expanded when Ed Hart planted apples in the 1960's. Additional apples have been added to increase the production and add over 100 different varieties, including many cider and antique types of apples. The ranch has been operated as both a family u-pick and for fresh fruit sales. Hard Cider has been made for family and friends for nearly 20 years, and is now being made for retail sales. Our Cider is made from 100% local apples grown here on this mountain ranch. A large variety of apples are grown on-site as well as several varieties of pears. At Calico Ranch, we implement an integrated pest management system which is a safer, minimized, and wiser use of pesticides and herbicides. We are certified organic.

Gravenstein- Single Varietal Cider.

So we are calling it "SAVE THE GRAVENSTEIN" as part of our mission is to increase awareness for the variety.

Backyard- is a blend of local residents’ rescued backyard apples. Every year in west Sonoma County, thousands of pounds of backyard apples are wasted because the average person cannot use all the fruit from their trees, so we were inspired to put these historic apples to use.

1976- is a hommage to the year Stan & Susan Devoto left Berkeley to move ‘back to the land’ and planted our family’s first orchard in west Sonoma County. Visionaries of their time, they valued biodiversity and cultivated vegetables, flowers, and 55 heirloom apple varieties that we still grow today.

Cidre Noir- In November, as winter draws near, we bundle up and harvest the last and most charismatic of our apples.
